Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability stemmed from missing output encoding in multiple locations handling 'navigation_title' and 'title' fields. The patch adds htmlspecialchars()
in backend Model.php
methods and replaces dangerous |raw filters with |escape in Twig templates. These specific functions were directly processing user-controlled input and outputting it to HTML contexts without proper neutralization, creating XSS vectors. High confidence comes from the direct correlation between patched locations and the vulnerability description.
